The filter change indicator (see fig.
26)is designed for the changing cycle of the Active Air Clean and Active HEPA filters.
If you use an Air Clean exhaust filter instead, lighting of the filter change indicator and reset button can be disregarded as the exhaust filter should simply be replaced whenever a new box of Miele filter bags is opened. The indicator lights turn off when the reset button is pressed.

Frequently asked questions
The vacuum cleaner shuts off automatically.
A warning light comes on to indicate overheating (see fig. 31).
A temperature sensor will turn off the vacuum cleaner if it becomes too warm. This is indicated by a thermal protection indicator on the display panel of the vacuum.
This problem can occur if, for example, an object is blocking the suction hose or the filter bag pores have become clogged with fine dust. The cause could also be a heavily soiled exhaust or dust compartment filter. If this happens, turn off the vacuum cleaner (press the On/Off foot switch ) and unplug the power plug from the electrical outlet.
Once the cause has been addressed, allow the vacuum cleaner to cool for approx. 20 - 30 minutes before resuming vacuuming.
